Eva

In this Swiss-German comic series launched in 1993 by Edition Moderne, writer-artist Didier Comès crafts a stark, black-and-white fable set in a bleak, industrial future. The story follows the title character as she navigates a world of ecological collapse and authoritarian control, her journey a quiet meditation on survival and humanity. Comès's hauntingly detailed art, often compared to woodcuts, gives the series a timeless, expressionist weight. A singular, self-contained work from a master of European graphic storytelling, Eva remains a potent, atmospheric outlier in Comès's celebrated oeuvre.
